Road Safety

Road safety refers to the measures and practices aimed at reducing the risk of accidents and injuries on roadways. It encompasses a variety of strategies and initiatives designed to create safer road environments for all users, including pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, and vehicle occupants. Key components of road safety include improving infrastructure (such as roads, signs, and signals), enforcing traffic laws (speed limits, seat belt use, and drunk driving regulations), educating the public about safe driving behaviors, and promoting safe vehicle design. The ultimate goal of road safety is to minimize the incidence of road traffic accidents, fatalities, and injuries, thereby ensuring safer transportation for individuals and communities.
